    Hi all, Just got a blue tux urchin from LA. Looks like he lost about half his spines in shipping and he has this weird green patch on him? Any ideas on what the spot is? Medications/treatment? I put him in the tank and he immediately spawned- (I think) idk if thats a good sign or bad? Thanks!

    I've had a blue linkia star for over a year in my tank. He's always done real well since I figured out to really maintain the salinity closely. That was the #1 issue. All of his little white spots went away and he was real healthy. He's always been shy and stayed in the rocks when the lights...

    Just looking for suggestions on urchins that won't leave traction marks in the acrylic. Do they all eat corraline algae? I may be wanting something to control my pink corraline soon.

    Hi, Does anyone have any of these Blue Tuxedo Urchins? I am thinking about getting one but I read they need alage to survive. I don't have too much algae in my tank. How can I feed it if I get one? I read that you can use dry seaweed, but how do you feed it to make sure it gets food? Thanks
